I had a friend riding with me who can witness what happened, but how many think I will actually get a ticket from this and what are my chances of getting it thrown out if I do?

You are 100% fine. I do this sometimes to mess with the camera and make it go off. As you come to the red light and come to a sudden stop and the camera is "tricked" into thinking you are about to run the red light. It takes the first "Flash Shot" but not the second. If you did go through and/or didn't stop before making a right turn, it takes a second "flash shot". That is when you get the ticket in the mail.
